Coventry City Council: The local authority’s property department
Node provided urban design, masterplanning and landscape visual impact services, to support the outline planning application for the development of up to 350 dwellings and a new care home on the allocated greenfield site in Allesley village.
Node undertook a comprehensive site and contextual analysis, including a detailed character assessment to understand the distinctive features of the local built environment as well as the national, regional and local landscape characters influencing the site. This analysis, together with a recognition of the site’s opportunities, allowed Node to develop a number of spatial design principles that creates a framework for future development proposals.
Node developed a 350 dwelling scheme that aims to reinforce the distinctive local character of Allesley village. The proposals sought to utilise the site’s strategic location to increase connectivity between the village and amenities such as the White Lion pub and Lyons Business Park. The proposals were structured around a the creation of a strong ecological network, interconnecting a number of existing ecological features on the site as well as providing migration routes through the site and into the wider countryside.
Node submitted an illustrative layout, parameter plan, design and access statement, and landscape visual impact assessment to support the outline planning application. The application is currently awaiting determination.
